Nagpur :- Robots might take over our jobs! That’s the warning we’ve been hearing for years now. AI is replacing and will continue to replace some jobs, in fact, AI could replace a staggering 300 million full time jobs. Workers in industries ranging from healthcare to agriculture and industrial sectors can all expect to see disruptions in hiring due to AI. But demand for workers in other sectors is also expected to rise, thanks to AI.
Will AI replace us, or actually make us better and faster at what we do? We can expect a role reversal where humans will soon be the ones assisting machines, and not vice versa, a likely paradigm shift from machines assisting humans to humans assisting machines in the next decade.
Self-driving cars, robotic assistants, and automated disease diagnosis are all products of an emerging AI revolution that will reshape how we live and work. With demand for talented engineers more than doubling in the last few years, there are limitless opportunities for professionals who want to work on the cutting edge of AI research and development.
